About Safer Streets

The Safer Streets app is designed to support community reporting of local hazards and safety issues.

How does it work?

Users are encouraged to provide details around local hazards and safety issues. User submitted data is displayed on a map, and will expire depending on certain conditions (depending on the type of information provided).

The data is not intentionally anonymized, but does not require submission to be tied to a user account or profile.
